It's exam time right now. Huda has been putting her headphones on and studying late into the night. I was astonished by Huda's ability to stay focused. Nighttime is terrifying in Gaza. All we could hear was explosions and the sound of drones getting closer. But Huda just studies through it.

Before the war, Huda was the kind of person who liked to take pictures of what she was eating, especially when she made it. These days, when she gets hungry, she scrolls through those pictures. She said it helps her feel full just looking at them. She told me about a photo of maklouba from 2022, a screenshot of a burger ad.

She told me she zooms in and pretends she's picking the crispy bits off the chicken. I wanted to have an idea if you've ever been to the market lately and what kinds of things that are still being sold.

Like almost $11 for a candy bar. A year ago, prices were high, but not this high. People still had stored food. There were still some farms. The market I used to shop at still had stock. There were snacks and there were green leaves. Some vegetables. Some green vegetables.

There was also some coffee. There was also some tea. There was some sugar that we would use sometimes. We can sweeten some water with sugar and we can drink it so it could have some sort of A feeling of a sweet thing that could be enough for the body to feel full at some point somehow. Sugar, is it available? How much does it cost to get one kilo of sugar?

A kilo is a little over two pounds. Before the war, a kilo of sugar cost about 25 cents, 30 cents on the high end. When I was still in Gaza, a kilo of sugar was already outrageous, $16, and it was already hard to find. Now, there is almost nothing. Farmland has been wiped out. Greenhouses turned to ash. It's not just the food that's gone. There is no fuel to cook what little might be left.

Rice, lentils. There is no fuel to even boil water. There isn't any burning wood around you, right?

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm so sorry.
